Northstar Village #410

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

A perfect home away right at the base of the mountain, this Northstar retreat is going to spoil you and your guests as soon as you arrive! Before heading out each morning to take advantage of fresh powder, step out to the private balcony with a cup of coffee in hand and watch the hustle and bustle of the mountain right below. Curbing appetites will be a breeze as well with the fully equipped kitchen complete with gorgeous countertops, modern appliances, and breakfast bar seating for reminiscing about the day while cooking. Not to mention, the dining table will be ideal for card games and dinners, while the living area will be the hub for movie nights and kicking back in front of the fireplace with a cup of hot cocoa.

What's nearby:
Perched within walking distance of the lifts, you won't have any trouble spending sunup to sundown on the slopes. Come summer, hiking and biking in the area will also provide plenty of ways to have fun in the great outdoors. Take a break from the mountain and you will find that the village area offers a wide variety of familiar shopping options and local restaurants that will hit the spot after a full day of adventure. If you feel like venturing out a bit more, downtown Truckee is just seven miles north and the blue water of Lake Tahoe is eight miles in the opposite direction.

Walk to lifts
4WD/traction may be required in winter

Great location

This property was a great location. Just a short elevator ride to restaurants, gym, hot tub and the gondola to the slopes. The condo was spacious and clean. It was great to have washer and dryer and a full kitchen. It truly felt like home. So cozy and comfortable for our family of four. We definitely want to come back and stay here again.

A+++ Northstar In Village

Ignore other comments about unit cleanliness. Owners have responded and the unit was spotless, linens and towels were crisp and clean. Hot tubs worked great. Parking was seamless. Beautiful huge deck overlooking the rink/stage and forest. Everything was great. It's much bigger than it looks in the pictures too (esp. kitchen area). Splurge and get this place and you won't be disappointed!

Property was immaculate. VACASA management company deserves a ZERO star. I was left out in the cold for over an hour in the evening at Northstar Village because they shut their doors an hour early with no direction of how to get my keys. No help. I had to dig deep to find someone to get ahold of. It was an awful experience. The company didn't know they left hand from their right. Once I finally got checked in after and hour and 20 minutes of being lost, they promised some refund and yet I have not received anything. What a terrible management company

Nice but tired

Unit is attractive and in beauthiful Northstar Village. But, it is tired. Carpet is long past needing replacment, some of the kitchen & bath cabinets are chipped and scuffed. Showers desperately need new shower heads. We'd stay here again, it's just that the unit and location deserves better.

Once was a lovely property but now more of a college campus rental property. The photos do not reflect it's current conditions. Guest shower curtain is 2" above the tub, others have noted this as well, carpets are torn and stained, no dresser in the primary bedroom, no use of the ski locker. There was a dishwasher failure that was repaird/replaced the 2nd day but the water/sewer smell was present the entireestay.One stay2nd day butthe 2nd

Beautiful location, Spacious in need of TLC

This is one of those properties that could be 5 stars with a bit of TLC. Several inexpensive things like missing shower door gasket, standard sized pillow cases on king sized pillows and lowering shower curtain rod are easy fixes. Taking a little more influx of $ are the need for new carpets and end tables. The unit has good bones and is perfectly usable "as is." But difficult to give a while gearted endorsement. The facilities including the Recreation center are very nice. Spotless. Staff is friendly. Given some love this would be perfect.

Terrible unit look elsewhere

Management company Vacasa and owners clearly don't give a fig about cleanliness, condition of unit. Dirty, broken blinds stained and dirty furniture , crumbs on counter tops. Dust everywhere. Icemaker water dispenser broken so we had to go buy ice and water. stovetop half broken and caked on gunge burned on top. Insufficient glassware. Dirty dishes no kleenex or extra linens provided. The ac/ heater system so full of dust it set off the smoke detector. There was no internet despite it beng advertised. This place was probably great 20 years ago and now is mismanaged and a huge disappointment. Wouldn't rent anything managed by Vacasa again. They were not responsive at all and clearly just looking to make a quick buck by renting stuff cheap to keep steady inflow of customers.

Long weekend at northstar

Hello, Cleaning could have been much better. Toilets, floors not cleaned well. Multiple lights were out in the unit which was frustrating when trying to get out the door early without waking everyone. Primary shower was backed up within seconds and so you had to shower in few inches of water at feet. Wifi Never worked after n umtippe attempts to connect, unplug/plug router. Overall, great location, amenities, very comfortable beds!, But due to above issues, would stay in a previously renters property over this one next year.

Summertime beauty and peace

This is a great location if you are wanting to be away from the summertime crowds of Lake Tahoe 24/7. We visited in July, on a Monday-Thursday, and the location was very peaceful. It's just a short drive to Lake Tahoe and to Truckee. This condo was clean and well furnished. The king beds were super comfy, and my son says that even the sofa bed was comfortable. The kitchen appliances all worked well, as did the clothes washer/dryer combo. Dishwashing tabs, laundry detergent, and toiletries were supplied. There were just a few items that looked worn/damaged and could be updated (the wood blinds and the screen door), but otherwise everything was very nice. My sons enjoyed the pool at the rec center! My 11-year old especially enjoyed Euro Snack, a crepe/gelato restaurant. We went everyday. The staff was super friendly! We also ate some very tasty pizza at Rubicon pizza. All staff at this resort were very friendly and helpful. A representative from Vacasa remained in touch with me over our stay to make sure that we were happy with everything. I couldn't figure out how to work the TVs, and the Vacasa rep provided an excellent suggestion. (I'm not tech-saavy and didn't realize I had to use one of the HDMI settings.) If we come back to the area, we will stay here again!

Terrific ski in out in spring

Perfect location for boarding and skiing with two small kids. Accessible to northstar village with very little crowds. The condo itself had all the basic amenities so we could enjoy quiet and intimate dinners at home as well as take advantage of the small number of restaurants that were open. Great spring skiing and fun for everyone. There are also hiking trails, heated pool and hot tub as part of the experience.
